Knipex 00 20 01 V02 Circlip Snap-ring Plier Set 6 Pc

Product Description

The KNIPEX 00 20 01 V02 is a 6-piece circlip snap-ring plier set designed for installing and removing internal and external circlips across a range of bore and shaft sizes. The set includes four precision snap-ring pliers in two overall lengths, 5.5 inches and 7.25 inches, covering both internal straight and external straight tip configurations. Handles are constructed from non-slip plastic for secure grip during repetitive service work. The set ships in a structured foam insert case that organizes and protects all four pliers during transport and storage. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and millwrights routinely keep a set like this on hand for shaft and housing work during equipment service.

This set is suited for residential and light commercial mechanical work where circlips and snap-rings are encountered on pump shafts, motor assemblies, bearing housings, and similar rotating or reciprocating components. The two plier lengths provide reach and leverage options for confined spaces and larger-bore applications. The foam insert case makes this set practical for a service van tool kit or a shop bench. The 6-piece configuration covers the most common internal and external straight tip requirements in a single case.

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard internal and external circlips and snap-rings encountered in pump, motor, bearing, and general mechanical assembly service work.

Installation Notes

Snap-ring plier work is performed by licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general mechanics during equipment teardown and reassembly. Always de-energize and lock out equipment before accessing rotating assemblies or bearing housings. Use the correct tip size and plier length for the circlip diameter to avoid tip slip and ring deformation. Wear eye protection when compressing or expanding circlips, as rings under tension can release unexpectedly.
